Car crashes into Manchester dry cleaner

Fire officials said the car crashed into A&A Cleaners on Hanover Street near Rand Street. It came to rest 30 feet into the building.

Officials said the driver, a 73-year-old woman, is a regular customer who had been at the business but then left to get a check. When she returned, she turned into the parking lot and crashed into the building, fire officials said.

"All of a sudden, we heard this ungodly crash," said Marcia Harrington, owner of A&A Cleaners. "And then I realized glass was falling all around us, and the counters were being pushed back."

Harrington said her husband had to jump out of the way, and another employee found himself pinned against his press as the car grazed his hand. No one inside the building was hurt.

Fire officials said the driver said she wasn't sure what happened.

"At this time, it's under investigation," said District Chief Al Poulin. "She was conscious and alert when we arrived and in good spirits."
